Up on the double divide

Down on Filbert''s Rise

I chanc''d to meet a city girl
G
Wish clear blue sparklin'' eyes

I see those eyes

Down on Filbert''s Rise
First morning I did see her
Comin'' in from the West
Storm clouds on the mountain
And tears all down her breast
Tears a''fallin''
Down on Filbert''s Rise
Up on the double divide
Down on Filbert''s Rise
Down on Filbert''s Rise
Down on Filbert''s Rise
Full well I knew her sorrow
Was no concern of mine
But as I took her in my arms
My own heart soon did pine
Hearts in sorrow
Down on Filbert''s Rise
Up on the double divide
Down on Filbert''s Rise
Down on Filbert''s Rise
Down on Filbert''s Rise
Wild horsed and wild rivers run circles around the sun
I see her in the days and nights as they blend into one
I see her in the moonlight and in the starry skies
Sometimes I even swear I see her
Down on Filbert''s Rise
I see those eyes
Down on Filbert''s Rise
I see her in the moonlight and in the starry skies
Sometimes I even swear I see her
Down on Filbert''s Rise
I see those eyes
Down on Filbert''s Rise
